Self Awareness

We all go through periods of worry and frustration. If we are not worrying about something we have done, or had done to us, we are fretting about some situation looming in the future. At times like this we are very aware of our problems and what we think is causing them.
The trouble is, we do not seem to be able to do much about it and we remain in the grip of our confusion and stress.  The way out of this destructive cycle is to develop an awareness of what we really value, what we really want and what we can cast aside and leave behind. In the process of doing that we remember, or perhaps discover for the first time, how good and worthwhile we are. We are all good and worthwhile and as a result, strong and independent, if only we could see and feel that and bring it into our everyday lives.  
Just sit for a moment and relax. Still your mind and let go of your worries and frustrations. What is left when you discard all the confusing mind detail is you, the real you. This is the calm internal self which never changes and which is always available to support, guide and comfort you, if only you can remember to stop and check it out now and again!
Awareness of this internal self is the first step towards real deep down confidence in yourself. Once you have it and can call on it whenever you wish, you will know without any doubt that you can handle just about anything. Your worries become mere situations to be sorted, when you are good and ready. Stress becomes simply understanding your priorities and calmly dealing with them in order, or just letting them go. Confusion becomes focus and clarity so that you know exactly what to do and how.

Self awareness is the real basis for a happy life because you become happy with yourself. You are brilliant – why wouldn’t you?

Welcome to my Blog!

A very warm welcome. Let me say immediately that Life and Careers Coaching is not therapy or counselling – it’s a lot more fun than that! It does get personal but it is always confidential; it is challenging but always positive and never critical.

I will be demonstrating, with examples and experienced based tips, how Coaching works for ordinary people who have simply become bogged down.  We have all been there. We become so entangled that we can no longer see the wood for the trees. What we need at times like these is a sympatheic but objective outsider with the skills to help us to unravel our problem and focus on the solution. Also, to encourage us to move forward and achieve it – permanently.

Many of our issues are Career related. Our job or our business represents a massive investment of our time – of our life. It is no wonder that discontent in this area can make us low and negative about everything! I will show you how to rebuild your confidence by focusing on your strong points and achievements; how to develop the strength of mind to get what you need from your situation, or to change it for something much more suitable – for you.
